To Be Or Not To Be

Life is a trip I don’t want to take again.
Who would want to start over? Forget
heaven, hell, blank nothingness…any
Idea of what comes next…you come
back, it’s as simple as that…and the 
proof is that you’re here, now, with
specific attributes unique to you that
appeared when you were very young,
showing karma manifesting through the
genes.

Whatever actions you take in this life
echo down the aeons and get louder.
If you cause harm to others, if you’re
greedy and selfish, those actions will be
mirrored back eventually in future lives,
whether one is reborn as human or in
some other realm.

As the plumber says, pay me now or 
pay me later...

...or, as the Buddhist says, if you want to 
see the future, look at the present...if you
want to see the past, look at the present.

So, it would be best to forget about the 
whole thing, and rest in non-existence, 
which is not nothingness, but rather mind
where complexities such as organic 
existence don’t arise…

…but that takes some training.
